Care of Your Tattoo

Taking care of your tattoo is very important, and in case you forgot what we told you when you had it done - here it is again.

(1) Remove bandage from the tattoo one or two hours after you had it done.

(2) Rinse gently with cool or lukewarm water; using a mild anti-bacterial soap. Pat it dry, don't rub it.

(3) Apply a thin coat of antibiotic ointment. Discontinue the use of the ointment in 2-3 days.

(4) Do not soak in water. Do not let the shower run directly on it.

(5) Avoid sun, sea bathing and swimming pool until your tattoo has healed.

(6) Do NOT run, scratch or pick the tattoo!

(7) After 5-14 days, the tattoo may start to peel. This is natural. Allow the skin/scab to fall off naturally. (See above, number 6)

(8) Colours may fade during this period, but will return when the healing is complete.

(9) If you have *any* problems, come back and see our tattoo artist immediately.
